Luann by Greg Evans and Karen Evans for October 14, 2018

if it WERE Puddles, he’d be holding a bone instead of a banana

At least she got the legs, body, nose and mouth right. That’s something.

Puddles looks very monkey – like!

Thanks for giving our intrepid cartoonist the day off, Little Billy… I mean Little Shannon.

“How much is that doggy in the window?”

“The one with the waggily tail?”

“How much is that doggy in the window?”

“I DO hope that doggy posts Bail!” – Anita Francis

I never learned to draw any better than that.

And meanwhile, somewhere else, a fist is still waiting to fall…

To hit a bullseye, first shoot the target (assuming you can) THEN draw the circles around the hole.

What happened to the two douchebags and the fat chick?

While everyone else in this strip changed, Puddles remained the same.

Change the banana to a beer and you would have Brad

If at first you don’t succeed, redefine success.

My wife will love, love, love this! Especially in view of this being our 18th year of marriage, on this day (she’s fond of those little “monkey-critters” and their antics, even more than “cute little bunnies”!)! Happy Anniversary, Seannise!

Shannon wanted to draw Puddles, but her body wanted to draw a monkey.

“Shannon Decided To Hold A Drawing”

“In A Pencil Vein, Your State Of Mind”

“Mary Landed A Little Crab…. At Least That’s What It Looked Like… "

“Rounding Curves, On Leaded”

“A Banana With Plumbago”

“You Can’t Graphite City Hall!”

“A Banana With Plumbago”

“Can You Draw Water From A Well?”

“Monkey See, Monkey Do Not See”

“She Gave Me The Puppy Dog Eyes!….I Think… "

“An Accident, In Number 2”

or

“We’ll Cross That Fridge, When We Get To It”

Somewhere in the pedigree of that Monkey-Puppy, there’s gotta be some Koala….

She’s so talented♥

Has the artwork improved in this strip, or is it just me? ;o)

This is the perfect Sunday cute foible comic given the intensity in the current arc. I am about as bad at drawing as Shannon, but it’s Shannon so its cool.

Bob Ross would approve. Happy accident.

change the story to fit the outcome. She’s learning all right.

Looks more like a Koala to me

A cartoonist is born!

Shannon’s age seems to fluctuate between story arcs. What is she today – about 8 or 9?

Looks like Greg has got some competition.

That is how I draw! I draw the image first and decide what it is when I’m done. My flying saucers look like sombreros, my hot air balloon looks like an oven mitt.

Shannon: Why is she here? Three quarters of the year gone and the only fun thing has been the little, 15 year old, Fay, a would-be Tiffany, toting her stash of makeup and hot to trot. She is just about old enough to be in Greg’s comfort zone. So far, this year could be named, Revenge of the Sleaze. Let’s cut some slack for the good guys and have some fun.

tomorrow: waiting room at the Emergency Clinic?

This is very timely. Just two days ago we were caring for a four year old young friend and the real time evolution of children’s art works came up. It is actually very creative that they can find better fits for the subject as they draw during the years before they can sketch better.

What happened to Luann? We’re tired of Gunther and Les and Shannon is just too bratty. We miss Luann and Bernise and Brad and Toni. If things don’t improve we may just drop this comic.

First panel, Puddles wags tail in excitement. Last panel, Puddles is bewildered – “What happened?” Short story is Shannon does not know how to draw dogs but she still loves you.

It looks nothing like Puddles!!!

The Alpha and the Omega: Puddles and Shannon

Shannon started to draw Puddles, but it ‘evolved’!

I once tutored a foreign student who understood almost no English. The lesson in his book was talking about various animals. I can’t draw worth a darn, but I did manage to convey to him which animals it was talking about. Though I suspect it was the noises I made for the respective animals that clued him in more, LOL! (Who says “Old MacDonald” won’t come in useful in adulthood?) :-D

Verismo!

Realistic!

I mean Shannon’s outlook, not her drawing….

If one does not bathe often, they can draw flies.

Shannon only got 104 comments. We need ANN !

Very cute, Shannon!
